Think about dash reflection and steering wheel cleaning issues.

I'm clean, no worries. I'm not sure how red reflects more than black, but I'm sure you will enlighten me.

I’ve owned more cars than my age. I’m 80. Used to be a new car dealer too. You’ll be fine and you’ll love your car. Stay safe.

I ordered my T in Ice Grey without ever seeing it person. Here are some production pictures of my car. No regrets.

As much as I like the sound of the color, the looks leave me thinking it's white or like some blues that look black, leaving the onlooker uncertain what color it really is.

It's very close to the now cancelled CWM color, not as dark as Chalk. Someone posted the comparison photo below. I think they cancelled CWM to draw people into the higher priced ice grey, and simplify the paint line by removing a color.

someone posted photos of an ice grey 992 in the turbo forums, it looked like a really nice blue-ish tint covered in rain and outside without much sun

looks more white in other photos i've seen, but rained out it looks great
im not sure but thats either a white or cwm car next to it

I found this link that finally got me to call my SA to switch. Unfortunately my build locked just before that

This IGM Cab was at my dealership when I was configuring my C2S coupe. Made me sure I wanted it. Not really white.

There is a 911 GTS at Nashville Porsche with red/black. To me the ice gray has a pale blue/gray quality to it. Hard to capture in photos,
